We initiate a fundamental study of modal-plasmonic interactions in nanostructured resonance elements with the aim to develop new hybrid multiparametric sensors. The proposed hybrid sensor operates under guided-mode resonance (GMR) and surface-plasmon resonance (SPR) in unison. Numerical simulations of gold-integrated…

The Onsager theory of hard rod dispersion in a neutral solvent is extended to a case of two-component dispersion consisting of both non-magnetic and magnetic rods. It was found that the alignment of magneto-sensitive dispersion component by a magnetic field leads to the alignment of non-magnetic component in the dispe…

In the past decade, the C60-based ion gun has been widely utilized in the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) analysis of organic and biological materials because molecular secondary-ions of high masses could be generated by cluster-ion bombardment. This technique furthers the development of SIMS in bioanalysis by…

The theory of the stationary Josephson tunnel current ${I}_{c}$ was devised for junctions involving superconductors partially gapped by biaxial or unidirectional charge density waves (CDWs) and possessing a superconducting order parameter of $d$-wave symmetry. Specific calculations were carried out for symmetric junct…

Colloidal suspensions of plate-like particles undergo a variety of phase transitions. The predicted isotropic/nematic transition is often pre-empted by a sol/gel transition, especially in suspensions of the most commonly used natural swelling clay montmorillonite (MMT). A number of factors, including charge interactio…

We fabricated large area (>1 × 1 cm2), epitaxial Fe nanowire arrays on MgO(001) substrates by nanoimprint lithography with a direct metallization of epitaxial materials through a metallic mask, which avoided the disadvantageous metal-etching process in conventional methods. The magnetization reversals, as revealed by…

BACKGROUND: Stable initial fixation of a total joint arthroplasty implant is critical to avoid the risk of aseptic loosening and premature clinical failure. With implant motion, a fibrous tissue layer forms at the bone-implant interface, leading to implant migration and periprosthetic osteolysis. At the time of implan…

Abstract The alkaline earth metal compounds AETMg2 and AETCd2 (AE = Ca, Sr; T = Pd, Ag, Pt, Au) were synthesized by induction‐melting (or in muffle furnaces) of the elements in sealed niobium ampoules. The new phases were characterized by powder X‐ray diffraction. The structures of SrPdMg2 and SrPdCd2 were investigate…

Optical tweezers are exciting tools with which to explore liquid crystal (LC) systems; the motion of particles held in laser traps through LCs is perhaps the only approach that allows a low Ericksen number regime to be accessed. This offers a new method of studying the microrheology associated with micrometre-sized pa…

The kinetics of phase demixing in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) consisting of PEG/sodium citrate, with various PEG molecular weights (2000, 4000, and 6000) was investigated at 25°C. The rate of demixing of the phases (top/bottom) is essential to scale up the aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE) process. The indivi…
